St. Paul's Three Chapters On Holiness is a book written by John Venn in 1877. The book is an analysis of three chapters from the New Testament, specifically 1 Thessalonians 5, 2 Corinthians 6, and Ephesians 5. These chapters focus on the concept of holiness, and Venn explores the meaning of this term in the context of St. Paul's teachings. The book is divided into three parts, each corresponding to one of the chapters analyzed. In each section, Venn provides an in-depth analysis of the text, highlighting key themes and concepts. He also draws on other biblical passages and historical context to provide a broader understanding of St. Paul's teachings on holiness. Throughout the book, Venn emphasizes the importance of holiness in the Christian life, and he encourages readers to strive for this ideal. He argues that holiness is not simply a matter of following rules or performing good deeds, but rather a transformation of one's inner being. St. Paul's Three Chapters On Holiness is a valuable resource for anyone interested in biblical studies, theology, or Christian spirituality. It provides a thoughtful and insightful analysis of key passages from the New Testament, and offers practical guidance for living a holy life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

John Venn (1834-1923), a leading British logician, moral scientist and historian of Cambridge, came from a noted family of clerics, although he resigned from the clergy as his philosophical studies led him away from Anglican orthodoxy. This family memoir, published in 1904, covers the careers of three centuries of Venn clergy, together with an outline of the family origins and pedigrees. The family came from Devon, where William Venn was ordained in 1595, and two of his sons followed him. Richard Venn was displaced and jailed during the Commonwealth. The author's father, John, was the founder of an evangelical sect at Clapham (where his father Henry had also been curate), and of the Church Missionary Society, an organisation in which the author's brother, Henry, played a leading role. The study provides a microcosmic history of the Anglican Church from the Reformation to the end of the nineteenth century.

First published in 1913, John Venn's collection of writings describes college life in the early days of the University of Cambridge. Venn, a leading British logician and moral scientist, was president of Gonville and Caius College, and had been a student at Cambridge in the 1850s. This volume of 'reminiscences of a reading man' contains articles he contributed to the college magazine, The Caian and speeches and addresses given at College Chapel and Hall. These are interspersed with letters written by seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Cambridge scholars, and embedded in a commentary that provides additional insights into student life and university politics. He also includes, as an appendix, 'College Life and Ways Sixty Years Ago', recounting his own student experiences. Ranging from the Elizabethan to the Victorian era, Early Collegiate Life offers an honest and delightful glimpse into the daily lives of Cambridge scholars of the past.
